NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Feb 14, 2014) - If you are looking to diversify your investment portfolio with more than paper stocks and bonds, then you may want to consider profitable opportunities in diamonds, gold, and rare coins for 2014. These investments are solid, tangible products that can withstand economic decline. Many investment advisors suggest having at least some of your investments in precious metals and diamonds for the simple fact that they will be there when you need them. No matter how much or how little you have to invest now, you will have financial security later, as the value of precious metals is expected to continue rising and reaching historic levels.

A Precious Metals IRA is subject to the same laws and regulations as other IRA accounts, and is legally allowed under IRS rules. The precious metals allowed in the IRA must be bars or coins that meet purity guidelines. You must have a third party handle the IRA for you. You cannot just use your IRA to buy precious metals to hide in your home. If you have an IRA, you can convert it over to a precious metals account. The precious metals remain in an IRS approved insured depository until you reach retirement age. At that point, they can be sent to you or you can convert them to cash for use as needed.
